Cartoon del 1939 sul patto Molotov-Ribbentrop, volto a dividere l’Europa in due sfere di influenza tra la Germania nazista e l’Unione Sovietica. Sotto il protocollo segreto, la Polonia doveva essere condivisa, mentre Lituania, Lettonia, Estonia, Finlandia e Bessarabia andarono all’Unione Sovietica.

2 years – After that a rocking break up with couple then fighting over house and guardianship over kids they forcibly adopted
Don’t ask a Soviet apologist why Russian history of WW2 only starts in 1941.
Long live cartoonist😍
Never forget !
ChatGPT, replace Hitler face with Trump and Stalin face with Putin
Never forget or diminish the Soviet role in WWII
In before the horde of angry tankies arrives.
I always pictured Hitler as the bride.
The part about Finland aged like milk.
The Russian empire and Russian imperial dreams never died, it just changed its face. Until it is stamped out and broken they will continue.
Where are all the trolls? Have they not received new instructions about how to answer this post from their superiors?
He cried like a bitch for days when they broke up. Tragic love story.
And after the war the world has indeed been divided into two between murica and the very same soviet union. Let’s not forget that either… The western world has very conveniently sold out half of europe like cattles.
20 years from now, we’ll be able to read what the terms of the Trump-Putin Pact were.
What about Munich Agreement? Oh, wait, its…not the same, yes?
I think nuance is lost here. The USSR sucked ass when it came to this, but one can question their motives more than that. Leading up to this the USSR did so many things to prevent the spread of fascism while the UK for example sat on their butt while Poland was straight up obstructionist.
* The USSR signed Franco-Soviet Treaty of Mutual Assistance with the goal of limiting Nazi influence.
* France, with the backing of the USSR, proposed the Eastern Pact to create mutual aid in the east.
* The USSR was the only great power to support the republicans in Spain and oppose the fascists.
* The USSR offered to help defend Czechoslovakia if France did too
* In 1939 the USSR offered to form a military alliance against Germany
Most of these efforts were blocked by Poland themselves over fair questions of autonomy with soviet troops potentially entering their land, but still playing into Nazi hands nonetheless.
You can argue that the USSR did it for selfish gains, but it’s completely childish to write it off as only comically evil intentions. The Allies failed to show a backbone. Either they were unwilling or unable to oppose Hitler from the Soviet perspective. It’s a questionable decision with ulterior motives no doubt but it’s not a stretch to say that the primary goal was to buy time and secure their boarders (at Poland’s expense). But the USSR also did 90% of the work in defeating nazi Germany and did they not do what they had its debatable if they would’ve still won.
Anticommunists love repeating this piece, yet can never explain why France and the UK refused to form an alliance with the USSR against the Nazis 🤔
Instead of Bessarabia, you should say parts of Romania.
It was the whole part of so called Basarabia (eastern Moldova, across the Prut river) – parts of which are now inside the Republic of Moldova, parts inside of Ukraine – and northern Bucovina area.
“Basarabia” unlike the others mentioned, wasn’t a country, but a part of a country – Romania – inhabited by Romanians.
Raises into question what the Secret Protocols of today might be.
Correction: Lithuania was part of the German Sphere of Influence originally. Only later it was revised and Lithuania was added to the Soviet sphere of influence in exchange of Germany gaining more control of Poland.
Now someone remake it with Putin as Hitler and Trump as Stalin. Or Orban as Stalin. Or just make it a template.
If im correct the initial plan was germany taking lithuania and not the urss
